One of the great experimental films. A 60 minute, three part riddle that maybe approximates our intellectual development by moving from imageless words to the recognition of silent images and the learning of simple tasks and finally a serenity and acceptance of death.
Rhodri Davies plays two deconstructed harps. Lee Patterson examines the sonic properties of burning nuts.
